To the men who love for relationships on dating apps why do you pay for the premiums when they can be used for free?

This gripe laden complain-a-lota-puss attitude don’t get anyone more puss. Also this post ain’t related to divorce.

The most valuable feature of the paid version is to be able to select from those who have already swiped on you. It's a total game changer.

Gonna be honest, either pay, or don’t be on them. If you can get unlimited swipes and get yourself pushed to the front of the line, it matters. Visibility matters and that’s what paying gets you. The apps are 70% male. You can be on them and never get seen. Really dial in your profile. Loose weight, get your haircut and skincare in orders. Wear good clothes and be intentional about taking the pictures. So many people put literally no effort into looking attractive and then complain they don’t work. And for some people they just won’t and that’s life. But at least maximize your appeal. Then pay. Give it two months and if you’re not successful, then delete them, re work on yourself and try again later with a new profile.

If you need evidence of what I’m saying, get a female friend to let you swipe on hers and you’ll see 90% of dudes throwing up cringe selfies and terrible pics with no prompts filled out. Women say it all the time, effort is attractive.

Get lean, groom well and learn how to get good pictures that show a life a woman will want to be a part of.

I didn’t want to go out to bars to pick up women and my area is full of married people so local spots are hard.
Paying for apps allowed me to almost gamify finding someone, i can admit i got at least 5 -10 likes a week vs 1-2 when free. These companies do make it pay2 play the free part only works if you have extremely good pictures. Ie rule 1 and rule2

I don’t, because when I do 90% of the girls who liked me are fat as fuck

If you pay to skip to the front of the line does that make it a waste of money? Come on man.
